Since the day Governor Punjab was assassinated, I have been receiving SMS messages and emails from anonymous individuals which have been quite disturbing. These messages are meant to play with the sentiments of the people. They seem to present the killer as a hero, rather than a disturbed extremist he really was. The only reason for these messages which comes to my mind is that some mischievous and extremist elements in our society want to further aggravate an already bad situation. It is an appeal to the people that they should ignore such messages and even report it if necessary to the proper authorities.
